“One of my adopted recipes, this pie is a bit out of the ordinary. It did not turn out like I expected, but I enjoyed it. Try it and see if you like it too. Preparation time includes cooling time for the pineapple layer.”

We enjoyed this. A layer of pineapple filling topped with a cheese cake-like cottage cheesey layer. A very lowfat pie which my kids even enjoyed. Had some lowfat cottage cheese to use up, also used nonfat milk, and a pie crust made from oil. So definitely nothing to feel too guilty about. Used an Emile Henry deep dish pie plate which was perfect. A regular 10-inch plate might work, but it would be tight. Next time I would use crushed pineapple in syrup or add extra sugar, I think it could have been a tad sweeter. We preferred this pie chilled. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
